Week 3: Vegetative Stage – Training, Defoliation, and Entering Full Flower The Apricot Autos have really taken off this week. I’ve been doing a little defoliation here and there, but over the course of training and tucking, I sometimes get a little heavy-handed and manage to break the odd leaf. Even with these occasional slips (you can see it in the pics), the plants are still shaping up nicely and getting huge, though not as much as my previous grow, which was also Fast Buds autos. By the end of the week, the plants have started to noticeably stretch, which I’m happy about since it makes them easier to train. At this stage, I like to train using mental pegs, gardening wire, and leaf tucking. I rarely remove any leaves until I have a clearer idea of the plant’s final shape, which did evolve quickly this week, prompting me to take action. On day 27, one of the plants is entering full flower, while the one with the misshapen leaf is a couple of days behind. The difference between the two is becoming less noticeable, although one is still bigger. Current Setup: Medium: 70/30 coco/perlite mix with Great White Mycorrhizae added during transplant Lights: DLI set to 22 Nutrients: Big Plant Science (introduced midweek) Despite breaking a leaf or two during training, both plants are progressing well, with flowering now fully underway.

She is going great. She was a little close to the light so on day 47, I gently pinched her and broght her main down and she is loving it. I was able to move the light lower now and she has responded well to it. This is the biggest autoflower plant I've ever grown. Day 49; wow this plant is a beauty and a lovely one to grow. Those buds are looking good and it becoming pretty pungent in there when the fans are off.

7/14: Watered her today. Just plain water. Filled up half gallon jug of water. Filled reservoir back first line. 7/16: Bumped light intensity to 45%. Topped off reservoir at night. 7/18: Watered her today with the the leftovers of some treated water with Rapid Start from her half gallon jug. Prepping for new nutrient schedule next week. I am happy to say it seems like the WCC is responding well to the environment and feeding schedule. So Far So Good!!! 😁 Thinking of possibly starting LST next week. Please Comment if anybody sees anything wrong in the pics!?!?!? 👍 Also any tips on how-to/when to start LST would be greatly appreciated! ***** For this Grow****** “Day Air Temperature” will be the max temp of tent for the week. “Substrate Temperature” will be the average temp of tent for the week. “Night Air Temperature” will be the lowest temp of the tent for the week.

Second week of Veg nothing to show just . I'll add more pics. Mid way through week.2-into 3.

This is the whole flowering cyclus posted in one week.

This week I started her LST and bent her top over as far as possible without snapping and locked her in place. I use soft wire "Gear Ties" sold in the hardware section of most places. I got mine at Home Depot. I highly recommend these for anyone serious about Lst. I kept her in this position for about 4 days before adjusting placement and pulling the main top back down below the lower branches. I have been maintaining the same feeding schedule "week 4 hydro" 3/4 str main nutrients, 1/2 str Open Seasame. She started showing preflowers on me even though it's been in an 18/6 light cycle. So that's why OS and week 4 feeding was opted. Even though the plant was technically 2 months old, she's only been fed and treated right for 2 weeks now. So week 7 from seed, I started at the week 3 schedule.

Starting to see some pretty nasty mag deficiency on the top of the canopy so I fed them some Mag Amped today! Will be watching the tops this week. Otherwise, they are exploding with weight!

Switched to my 5 gal pots now, dumped 6L of water into each plant to get the pH back down still waiting for them to dry out a little before the next watering which should be less so next week will have water amounts Height is for the holy punch again. Power flower is still around 1.5"

88 days in total Grew like a dream, drying at 60/60 and if I can will be back with a smoke report Highly recommend

News from the new smoking review Let's go to the flowers. As hard as Carrara marble, Michelangelo as a grower would say that everything was already predictable in the seed, he only transformed the shape, making it divine. Just like his marble blocks within which he already envisaged his magnificent works. And indeed this is a work of art of cannabis genetics that we will never tire of idolizing. As we have said several times, the mums are super, the flowers have a lot of King's Tart mum in terms of hardness and weight, they seem to weigh 30 grams but there are 64-odd flowers that are really heavy and very hard as those who know like it... The new smoking review of Growdiaries isn't bad, I'm trying to understand how they're organizing it but I don't mind at all, they'll be correcting a little bit but the site seems to have improved. From the harvest week Tarte Tatin is a superior level genetics, I'm really not joking about this thing you can see with your own eyes what wonderful flowers it makes. The plant has arrived at the end, I harvested it at the beginning of the harvest window, the pistils were very ripe while the trichomes asked me to stay a few more days, but the plant next to it has got mold on the buds and I won't risk this masterpiece not even as a joke. Don't give up even 0.1g of this beauty. I must say that the American lineage is evident a lot. Already the mother King's Tart had descendants from the legendary LA Kush Cake who was mixed with the legendary Bubba SLush Greenhouse. Here we have taken a further step towards perfection by adding a marvel from a breeder I know from the masterpieces I see published on Instagram, Compound Genetics. In truth, all the conditions were there and I would have torn my face off doing harm with these genetics. The resin is in industrial quantities, look at the photos there is a real crowd of trichomes on the flowers. The foliage is romantic, the kind that makes you fall in love with the truly blue/purple that also reverberates on the flowers. The scent is a mix of all fruits and something sweet and it makes me go crazy like an unscented pussy that walks past you and winks at you. Actually maybe a little more. Alpha male jokes aside, the stuff here is exceptional and closes the circle having used EXCLUSIVELY and deliberately Green House Feeding, as I have said several times it's a bit like eating at home with your mother or grandmother, you grow up strong and healthy and you is ready for a great future. In my lungs. Maybe I'll offer a joint on New Year's Eve at the latest, I'll take the rest. Sorry for the thousand photos I couldn't stop taking and manage to achieve something. Is a genetic goal of GHSC https://shop.greenhouseseeds.nl/feminised-cannabis-seeds/tarte-tatin/ My favorite feeding at the moment https://shop.greenhousefeeding.com/ Music of the week Radio Nula from Slovenia https://radionula.com/ Music of the week Music for Plants 432 hz https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3EZqEvMoS3w "I can see the light" https://marshydro.eu/negozio/?lang=it

Day21- the blueberry is really starting to blowup. I have a feeling she’s gonna be a big one. Grapefruit was having some problems but seems to be rebounding nicely. Very light lst this week and won’t do much more but will have to defoliate.

The island glues are going extremely slowly and the Amnesia Haze has just gone into Flower, she currently is about 70cm tall so very excited

Merlin Mintz is up, and going. Great germination, and everything is looking good. My only concern is if the nutrition is too strong. Thank you Aeque Genetics, Spider Farmer, and Athena. 🤜🏻🤛🏻🌱🌱🌱 Thank you grow diaries community for the likes, follows, comments, and subscriptions on my YouTube channel.

- she was harvested this morning on day 75, all pics are right before/during/after harvest - flushed for 12day, there was a slight fade but she was still pretty green, didn't want to wait any longer though - now drying in my cardboard box, harvest report will be up in 10 to 14 days as usual when everything is nice and dry - added 2 video's of her frosty ass haha

now everything is complete. yesterday i took the gelato to the flower tent, everyone looks great :-)

The cheese looks ready, all pistils have changed.. but she's small. Pistils are changing on the rest (45-55% white), will be trying to use this microscope more to check the trichs but I struggle to get them in focus 😟 Going to start reducing the MC starting tomorrow, roughly 2 weeks left, will flush with ph'd water for the last 2-3 waterings. These girls are sticky, sweet, fattening up and looking really nice Stay high, and stay tuned 😁

This strain is a dream to grow, if you haven't tried it yet, it's amazing, it's easy, it's lush and vibrant, full of energy from seed to smoke. Great for organic grow styles and a fun plant to grow. The smoke I will update in the smoke review! I do not have words for the quality of this strain. In everything. Grow this and be absolutely amazed by its performance. I had won the seeds with the Halloween give-away but they are a sure winner and a keeper. @SweetSeeds congratulations on a champion auto-strain. I've grown auto's before, only outdoors, but nothing like this, nothing this big in such a short time, and this resilient for not only mistakes but everything. This plant will perform even if you were to mess it all up. Keep to 20 liters grow bags for best performance as you could see with my two plants. One as more developed, although everyone says over 15 ltr makes no difference, with organic coco hybrid super soil, it does. It is the difference in buffering of nutes, PH, heat, and moisture. Way less hassle in the bigger pot and this was an excellent learning curve. This grow started out as a match between Forbidden Runtz by Fastbuds and XL Runts by Sweetseeds. But since the playing field was uneven (pot wise but also heat and fresh air wise), the results do not count in my opinion. But my guess is (since I haven't weighed the Forbiddens) that the XLs for now won. But as I said it would not be fair. We will do the contest again when said playing field is level. For now thank you again for checking my diaries, if you have any questions or comments, always welcome my friend. Big Hug Bud
